Conformational analysis

β-riboseUse the form below to calculate the proton-proton coupling constants in β-ribofuranosides (or nucleosides/nucleotides) form the puckering phase or to determine the puckering phase from experimental coupling constants.Note that there might be more than one phase that reproduces the experimental couplings
but only one is found by the program. A rmsd > 0.5 suggests that there is a conformational
equilibrium between two conformers
(i.e. north (3'E) ↔ south (2'E)).
For comparison an equilibrium between north and south conformers is also calculated. If the
ribofuranose ring is rigid then the rmsd for the fitted pseudorotaion angle should be lower than for the two state model.
To calculate the coupling constant just enter the pseudorotation angle (P) in degrees or select a conformer by pressing the appropriate button below. |
